NO COAL AT ALL

Just a select few of the photos that Anders and Mom and I took during her visit and the holidays. She's already gone to Germany and it went too fast, as always. We haven't even heard that she got there okay...assuming she's adjusting from teenagers to toddlers & babies!

I can't believe there is only one more day to 2013! Happy New Year!

OMG a typewriter! Be careful what you wish for! (actually, it's really cool and over 100 years old!)

Best for last, of course! New iphones!

Great pictures! Looks like you all had a wonderful time. :-)

There's got to be a story behind the typewriter... (Can you even still get ribbons that fit it?)

He put it on his wishlist and stuck by it despite all the doubts and abuse we heaped upon his head. I figure he'll use it once or twice and then it will be a giant, though cool, dust-collector. He already used it to write his thank you letters :D

Oh, I love these photos! Happy times on record! I especially love the one where your kids are opening their iphones! Priceless. I also want to hear the story behind the typewriter. I threw my grandfather's typewriter away when we moved, and I regret it so much. I can't believe I did that. But I got to that point where I just wanted everything DONE. No excuse. I still regret it!

Re: From Megsie

Goodness knows why but he wanted a typewriter. Put it on his wishlist and refused to be swayed by our arguments against it. So we managed to find one on the online classifieds for under $50 and he is SO happy. He already used it to type his thank you cards! haaa!
